Description

UPS assembly

[0001] The present invention relates to a UPS assembly, and more particularly, to a UPS assembly having a structure that improves freedom of arrangement, facilitates capacity increase, and effectively discharges generated heat.

[0002] An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is a device that provides power for a specified period of time even when the external power supply is interrupted. UPSs are widely used in situations where equipment must remain operational even during a power outage.

[0003] A UPS can be installed independently and connected to a device requiring power. For example, in household applications where power requirements are low, a UPS can be installed separately and connected to the device itself to provide power in the event of a power outage.

[0004] On the other hand, industrial UPSs are typically used in conjunction with other electrical devices, rather than as standalone devices. This is because industrial UPSs typically carry higher voltages than those used in household applications. For example, an industrial UPS may include a circuit breaker, an input section that supplies power to the UPS, and an output section that receives power from the UPS.

[0005] Typically, uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) used for industrial purposes can increase in size in proportion to the amount of power they supply. Furthermore, as the amount of power supplied increases, the number of electrical devices connected to the UPSs, such as safety devices to prevent accidents, can also increase.

[0006] In this case, there is a concern that not only the size of the uninterruptible power supply but also the layout structure of multiple devices connected to it will become complicated, and the size of the space occupied will unnecessarily increase.

[0007] Furthermore, UPSs are configured with a preset power capacity. Therefore, if the overall power capacity of the UPS is required for field use, additional UPSs must be added and connected. Even in this case, the layout and connection relationships between multiple UPSs, and between multiple UPSs and other devices, can become complex.

[0008] Furthermore, as the UPS operates, a large amount of heat can be generated. If this heat is not properly dissipated, the UPS components may be damaged by heat, reducing operational reliability.

[0009] Japanese Patent Document No. 7156487 discloses a battery. Specifically, the battery is structured to prevent an increase in overall length by arranging multiple uninterruptible power supply modules in the longitudinal and transverse directions.

[0010] However, the battery disclosed in the above prior art document only provides a method for reducing the length. In other words, the above prior art document does not provide a method for effectively dissipating the generated heat.

[0011] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2023-139689 discloses a UPS system. Specifically, the UPS system includes a plurality of battery units detachably connected to an inverter unit, thereby varying the available power capacity.

[0012] However, the above-mentioned prior art only provides methods for adding and removing battery units at the concept and electrical connection stages. In other words, the above-mentioned prior art also fails to provide a method for effectively dissipating generated heat.

[0013] Furthermore, the battery or UPS systems disclosed in the above-mentioned prior documents only provide methods for accommodating batteries of preset specifications. In other words, the above-mentioned prior documents do not provide methods for accommodating and utilizing batteries formed in various structures within the same housing.

[0014] The present invention is intended to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a UPS assembly having a structure in which power capacity can be easily varied.

[0015] Another object of the present invention is to provide a UPS assembly having a structure in which the degree of freedom of arrangement between each component can be improved.

[0016] Another object of the present invention is to provide a UPS assembly having a structure capable of effectively dissipating generated heat.

The other fan may provide a conveying force to discharge the cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with the battery (510).

[0185] Any one of the above fans may be positioned on the outer side of the battery (510) in the width direction, i.e., on the front side or the rear side in the illustrated embodiment. That is, any one of the above fans may be positioned on the front side of the first battery (510a) positioned on the front side. Additionally, any one of the above fans may be positioned on the rear side of the second battery (510b) positioned on the rear side.

[0186] At this time, the other fan may be placed in different positions depending on the manufacturer of the battery (510).

[0187] For example, the other fan may be formed on one side of the battery (510) in the height direction, i.e., on the upper side in the illustrated embodiment. In this case, the heat-exchanged cooling fluid may flow out to the upper side of the battery (510) and be discharged to the outside through the internal space of the UPS module duct frame (250).

[0188] In the above example, the internal space of the UPS module support frame (150) and the internal space of the UPS module duct frame (250) are connected to each other, so that the heat-exchanged cooling fluid can be discharged to the outside using only the transfer force provided by the other fan.

[0189] As another example, the other fan may be positioned on the inner side of the battery (510) in the width direction, i.e., on the rear side or the front side in the illustrated embodiment. That is, the other fan may be positioned on the rear side of the first battery (510a) positioned on the front side. Additionally, the other fan may be positioned on the front side of the second battery (510b) positioned on the rear side.

[0190] In the above example, the cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with the battery (510) flows into the cooling space (151c). At this time, in order for the cooling fluid to be discharged from the cooling space (151c) to the outside, it must flow along a longer path, requiring additional transport force.

[0191] Accordingly, the UPS assembly (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a blower fan (290) to provide a transfer force for cooling fluid (i.e., heat exchanged with the battery (510)) staying in the cooling space (151c) to flow out to the outside.

[0192] Accordingly, even if the structure of the battery (510) accommodated in the support frame (100) changes, the generated heat can be effectively discharged. Consequently, the support frame (100) can accommodate batteries (510) of various structures, thereby improving the economic efficiency and user satisfaction.

The high-voltage cutoff device (410) is the first component of the input module (400) to be electrically connected to the external power source. In other words, the high-voltage cutoff device (410) is the component to which power provided from the external power source is first transmitted.

[0216] Accordingly, the high voltage cutoff device (410) may be provided in any form that can allow or block the flow of power to an external power source and the input module (400). In one embodiment, the high voltage cutoff device (410) may be provided as a vacuum circuit breaker (VCB).

[0280] The UPS output device (610) is electrically connected to the integrated control panel (310) and the individual control panel (320), respectively. Information on the status of the UPS output device (610) can be output through the integrated control panel (310) or the individual control panel (320). Control information for controlling the UPS output device (610) can be input through the integrated control panel (310) or the individual control panel (320).

[0281] The UPS output device (610) is electrically connected to the battery (510). The connection may be formed by the main bus bar (710).

[0282] The UPS output device (610) can transmit the received power to the low voltage output device (620). The UPS output device (610) is electrically connected to the low voltage output device (620). Specifically, the UPS output device (610) is electrically connected to a portion of the main bus bar (710) coupled to the UPS output support frame (160). The portion of the main bus bar (710) is electrically connected to another portion of the main bus bar (710) coupled to the low voltage output support frame (170).

[0283] At this time, the UPS output device (610) may be operated so that the power transmitted from the battery (510) is not transmitted to the low voltage output device (620) when the voltage is higher than the preset voltage. That is, the UPS output device (610) may be configured to allow or release the power supply state of the battery (510) and the low voltage output device (620).

[0284] To this end, the UPS output device (610) may be configured to include any configuration capable of allowing or blocking the energization of the battery (510) and the low voltage output device (620). In one embodiment, the UPS output device (610) may be configured to include a Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB).

[0285] The low voltage output device (620) receives power from the UPS output device (610). In one embodiment, the low voltage output device (620) can receive low voltage power.

[0286] The low pressure output device (620) is coupled to the support frame (100). Specifically, the low pressure output device (620) is accommodated in the low pressure output support frame (170) and is communicated with the outside by the low pressure output duct frame (270).

[0287] The low-pressure output device (620) is electrically connected to the integrated control panel (310) and the individual control panel (320), respectively.

[0289] At this time, the low-voltage output device (620) may be operated so that the power transmitted from the UPS output device (610) is not transmitted to the outside when the voltage is higher than a preset voltage. That is, the low-voltage output device (620) may be configured to allow or release the power supply state between the UPS output device (610) and the outside.

[0290] To this end, the low voltage output device (620) may be configured to include the UPS output device (610) and any configuration capable of allowing or blocking external energization. In one embodiment, the low voltage output device (620) may be configured to include an ACB (Air Circuit Breaker).

[0291] Accordingly, the power transmitted externally from the battery (510) can be blocked or applied in multiple stages by multiple circuit breakers provided in each of the UPS output device (610) and the low-voltage output device (620). Accordingly, if an abnormality occurs in the power supplied to each stage, the power can be blocked at that stage. Consequently, damage to the external load due to the stray current can be prevented.

[0292] The bus bar (700) electrically connects each component provided in the UPS assembly (10). The bus bar (700) is coupled to the support frame (100) and is not exposed to the outside. At this time, the bus bar (700) is modularized and is at least partially positioned in each part of the support frames (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) that are coupled to each other.

[0293] When each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) is combined, each part of the bus bar (700) to which they are respectively combined is also electrically connected to each other. Accordingly, each device (410, 420, 430, 440, 510, 520, 610, 620) of each module (400, 500, 600) can also be electrically connected to each other.

[0294] At this time, the bus bar (700) may be positioned so as to be exposed in the space formed inside the duct frame (200). In the above description, it is assumed that the bus bar (700) is coupled to the support frame (100), but the bus bar (700) may also be coupled between the support frame (100) and the duct frame (200) or to the duct frame (200).

[0295] In any case, it is sufficient if the bus bar (700) can also be electrically connected with the support frame (100) or duct frame (200) that is modularly connected.

[0296] In the illustrated embodiment, the busbar (700) includes a main busbar (710), a sub busbar (720), and a UPS busbar (730).

[0297] The main bus bar (710) constitutes a portion of the bus bar (700). The main bus bar (710) extends so as to be positioned throughout the entire support frame (100) or duct frame (200). In the illustrated embodiment, the main bus bar (710) extends in the longitudinal direction of the support frame (100) or duct frame (200), i.e., in the left-right direction.

[0298] The main bus bar (710) can be connected to each component of the support frame (100). That is, the main bus bar (710) can be connected to each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) arranged along the left and right directions. That is, the main bus bar (710) can be configured such that each segment connected to each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) is connected to be electrically conductive to each other.

[0299] In the above embodiment, each section constituting the main bus bar (710) can be moved together with each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170). In addition, each section can be electrically coupled to each other when each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) is coupled.

[0300] In addition, each section constituting the main bus bar (710) can be electrically connected to each device (410, 420, 430, 440, 510, 520, 610, 620) of each module (400, 500, 600) accommodated in each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170).

[0301] Accordingly, the input module (400), UPS module (500), and output module (600) coupled with each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170) and their configurations can be electrically connected to each other.

[0302] The main bus bar (710) extends along the longitudinal direction of the support frame (100). Each longitudinal end of the main bus bar (710) may be arranged to overlap each longitudinal end of the support frame (100).

[0303] A plurality of main bus bars (710) may be provided. The plurality of main bus bars (710) may be spaced apart from each other and may be coupled to the support frame (100) at different locations. In the illustrated embodiment, the main bus bar (710) includes a first main bus bar (711) located on one side of the support frame (100) in the width direction, i.e., the front side, and a second main bus bar (712) located on the other side of the support frame (100) in the width direction, i.e., the rear side.

[0304] The first main bus bar (711) and the second main bus bar (712) can be electrically connected to each device (410, 420, 430, 440, 510, 520, 610, 620) of each module (400, 500, 600) accommodated in each support frame (110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170), respectively.

[0305] Therefore, even if either of the first main busbar (711) and the second main busbar (712) malfunctions, the UPS assembly (10) can operate stably.

[0306] The main bus bar (710) is electrically connected to the sub bus bar (720).

[0307] The sub busbar (720) electrically connects the main busbar (710) and the UPS busbar (730). The main busbar (710) and the UPS busbar (730) can be electrically connected to each other by the sub busbar (720).

[0308] The sub-bus bar (720) may be configured to include a portion that is electrically connected to the main bus bar (710) and another portion that is electrically connected to the portion and electrically connected to the UPS bus bar (730). In the illustrated embodiment, the sub-bus bar (720) is configured to include a first sub-bus bar (721) and a second sub-bus bar (722).

[0309] The first sub-bus bar (721) is electrically connected to the first and second main bus bars (711, 712), respectively. The first sub-bus bar (721) extends in the width direction of the support frame (100), in the front-back direction in the illustrated embodiment. One side of the extension direction of the first sub-bus bar (721), the front side in the illustrated embodiment, is electrically connected to the first main bus bar (711). The other side of the extension direction of the first sub-bus bar (721), the rear side in the illustrated embodiment, is electrically connected to the second main bus bar (712).

[0310] The first sub-bus bar (721) may be positioned adjacent to the UPS module support frame (150). In the illustrated embodiment, the first sub-bus bar (721) is positioned to one side of the UPS module support frame (150) in the longitudinal direction, i.e., to the left. The position of the first sub-bus bar (721) may be arranged to correspond to the position of the battery support frame (151).

[0311] The second sub-bus bar (722) is electrically connected to the first sub-bus bar (721) and the UPS bus bar (730), respectively. The second sub-bus bar (722) extends in the longitudinal direction of the support frame (100), i.e., in the left-right direction in the illustrated embodiment. One side of the extension direction of the second sub-bus bar (722), i.e., the left side in the illustrated embodiment, is electrically connected to the first sub-bus bar (721). The other side of the extension direction of the second sub-bus bar (722), i.e., the right side in the illustrated embodiment, is electrically connected to the UPS bus bar (730).

[0312] A plurality of second sub-bus bars (722) may be provided. The plurality of second sub-bus bars (722) may be electrically connected to the first sub-bus bar (721) and the plurality of UPS bus bars (731, 732), respectively.

[0313] In the illustrated embodiment, the second sub-busbar (722) comprises a portion electrically connected to the first sub-busbar (721) and the first UPS busbar (731) and another portion electrically connected to the first sub-busbar (721) and the second UPS busbar (732). The portion and the other portion are spaced apart from each other in the width direction of the support frame (100), i.e., in the front-rear direction in the illustrated embodiment.

[0314] Accordingly, the power transmitted to the first sub-busbar (721) can be transmitted to the UPS busbar (730) in a bypassable manner through a plurality of second sub-busbars (722).

[0315] The UPS busbar (730) electrically connects the sub-busbar (720) and the battery (510). Power can be transmitted to the battery (510) through the UPS busbar (730). In addition, power stored in the battery (510) can be transmitted to the output module (600) through the UPS busbar (730).

[0316] The number of UPS bus bars (730) may correspond to the number of batteries (510). In an embodiment in which a plurality of batteries (510) are provided, a plurality of UPS bus bars (730) may also be provided so as to be electrically connected to the plurality of batteries (510) and the plurality of second sub-bus bars (722), respectively.

[0317] In the illustrated embodiment, the UPS busbar (730) includes a first UPS busbar (731) and a second UPS busbar (732).

[0318] The first UPS busbar (731) electrically connects a portion of the second sub-busbar (722) (i.e., located on the front side) to the first battery (510a). The first UPS busbar (731) is located on one side, in the illustrated embodiment, facing the first battery receiving space (151a) or the first battery (510a) received therein.

[0319] The second UPS busbar (732) electrically connects the other portion (i.e., located on the rear side) of the second sub-busbar (722) to the second battery (510b). The second UPS busbar (732) is located on one side, in the illustrated embodiment, facing the second battery receiving space (151b) or the second battery (510b) received therein, on the rear side.

[0320] A cooling space (151c) is located between the first UPS busbar (731) and the second UPS busbar (732).

[0321] As described above, the first and second batteries (510a, 510b) are electrically connected to the sub-busbar (720) via the first and second UPS busbars (731, 732), respectively, so that a bypassable current path can be formed. Accordingly, even if either one of the first and second batteries (510a, 510b) malfunctions, power is bypassed to the other, so that the UPS assembly (10) can perform its original function.

[0322]

[0323] Referring to FIGS. 9 to 11, a process in which cooling fluid is introduced into a UPS assembly (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the introduced cooling fluid is heat-exchanged with the UPS assembly (10) and then discharged to the outside is illustrated as an example.

[0324] In the illustrated embodiment, it is assumed that the cooling fluid for cooling the battery (510) is introduced and then discharged, but it will be understood that other modules (400, 600) provided in the UPS assembly (10) can also be cooled as in the illustrated embodiment.

[0325] Additionally, the illustrated embodiment assumes that the battery (510) includes a plurality of fan members (not shown). As described above, one fan member (not shown) can provide a conveying force for introducing external cooling fluid, and another fan member (not shown) can provide a conveying force for discharging the heat-exchanged cooling fluid.

[0326] Referring to FIG. 9, a cooling fluid is introduced into a UPS module support frame (150) that accommodates a battery (510). The cooling fluid can be introduced into a battery accommodation space (151a, 151b) through openings (not given drawing symbols) formed on the outer side of the UPS module support frame (150) in the width direction, i.e., on the front side and the rear side. At this time, the first and second batteries (510a, 510b) are respectively accommodated in the first and second battery accommodation spaces (151a, 151b) that are spaced apart from each other in the width direction.

[0327] When any one of the fan members (not shown) provided in the first battery (510a) located on the front side is operated, the cooling fluid flows in a direction from the front side toward the rear side and enters the first battery receiving space (151a) to cool the first battery (510a).

[0328] In addition, when one of the fan members (not shown) provided in the second battery (510b) located on the rear side is operated, the cooling fluid flows in a direction from the rear side toward the front side and enters the second battery receiving space (151b) to cool the second battery (510b).

[0329] Referring to FIG. 10, a process in which heat-exchanged cooling fluid flows out when another fan member (not shown) is positioned on the upper side of the battery (510) is illustrated as an example.

[0330] The cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with the battery (510a, 510b) flows out of the battery receiving space (151a, 151b) by the transfer force provided by the other fan member (not shown).

[0331] At this time, the other fan member (not shown) is positioned on the upper side, so that the heat-exchanged cooling fluid can flow out to the UPS module duct frame (250) positioned on the upper side of the battery receiving space (151a, 151b).

[0332] As described above, the battery receiving space (151a, 151b) is connected to the internal space of the UPS module duct frame (250). In addition, the UPS module duct frame (250) is connected to the outside, so that the cooling fluid flowing into the internal space of the UPS module duct frame (250) can flow out to the outside.

[0333] Referring to FIG. 11, a process in which heat-exchanged cooling fluid flows out when another fan member (not shown) is positioned on the inner side in the width direction of the battery (510) is illustrated as an example.

[0334] In this embodiment, the other fan (not shown) provided in the first battery (510a) located on the front side is located on the rear side. The cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with the first battery (510a) flows into the cooling space (151c) located on the rear side by the transfer force provided by the other fan (not shown).

[0335] Additionally, another fan (not shown) provided in the second battery (510b) located on the rear side is located on the front side. The cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with the second battery (510b) flows into the cooling space (151c) located on the front side by the transfer force provided by the other fan (not shown).

[0336] That is, in the cooling space (151c), the cooling fluid that has exchanged heat with each battery (510a, 510b) remains.

[0337] When the blower fan (290) is operated, the cooling fluid remaining in the cooling space (151c) flows out into the internal space of the passage member (280) located above the cooling space (151c) by the conveying force provided by the blower fan (290). As described above, the cooling space (151c) and the internal space of the passage member (280) are connected.

[0338] The internal space of the passage member (280) and the UPS module duct frame (250) are connected to each other. The cooling fluid introduced into the passage member (280) can continue to flow and flow outward due to the conveying force applied by the blower fan (290).

[0339] Therefore, even if the position of the other fan (not shown) is changed, the battery (510) can be effectively cooled.

[0340] At this time, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the inflow and outflow paths of the cooling fluid can be formed to extend vertically at least partially.

[0341] Specifically, in the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 10, the cooling fluid flows into the interior of the support frame (100) in the front-back direction, i.e., in the horizontal direction. In addition, the cooling fluid that cools the first and second batteries (510a, 510b) flows in the up-and-down direction, i.e., in the vertical direction, and flows out into the duct frame (200). The cooling fluid that flows into the duct frame (200) can then flow in the front-back direction, i.e., in the horizontal direction, and flow out to the outside.

[0342] Likewise, in the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 11, the cooling fluid flows into the interior of the support frame (100) in the front-back direction, i.e., in the horizontal direction. In addition, the cooling fluid that cools the first and second batteries (510a, 510b) flows further in the front-back direction, i.e., in the horizontal direction, and flows out into the cooling space (151c).

[0343] The cooling fluid introduced into the cooling space (151c) flows in the vertical direction, i.e., in the vertical direction, and flows out into the duct frame (200). The cooling fluid introduced into the duct frame (200) can then flow in the forward-backward direction, i.e., in the horizontal direction, and flow out to the outside.

[0344] That is, when viewed from the perspective of the battery support frame (151) that accommodates the batteries (510a, 510b), the cooling fluid can be introduced horizontally and then discharged vertically. Accordingly, it can be said that the inlet and outlet channels of the cooling fluid extend at least partially vertically.

[0345]

[0346] The UPS assembly (10) according to the embodiment of the present invention described above can be modularized into individual components and electrically connected to each other. Accordingly, the connection and electrical connection between each component can be formed in a simple structure.

[0347] Additionally, the UPS modules (500) that store power can also be modularized and connected to each other so that they can be electrically connected to each other. Accordingly, the power capacity of the UPS assembly (10) can also be easily varied.

[0348] Meanwhile, the UPS module (500) may be configured to include a plurality of batteries (510). The plurality of batteries (510) may be independently electrically connected to the main bus bar (710) by a plurality of UPS bus bars (730). Therefore, even if any one of the plurality of batteries (510) malfunctions, a bypass path for power may be formed, allowing the UPS module (500) to perform its original function.

[0349] Furthermore, the UPS assembly (10) according to the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to batteries (510) of various structures manufactured by various manufacturers, thereby improving the economy and satisfaction of the user.
